MicroCosmos: Little Worlds
Update: I went down to see the show Memorial Day weekend and it was a delight! Lots of variety, whimsical, highly embellished, colorful, just about everything you could think of from American and international artists. I was also happy to find out my pieces have been sold. LaVeta is a gorgeous place and the Tims Gallery is a great space.
My entry to the Ricky Tims Gallery show: MicroCosmos: Little Worlds was accepted!
The purpose of the MicroCosmos challenge is for quilt artists to quickly create small, improvisational expressions based on a theme. Each entry into MicroCosmos is a triptych of three separate miniature, improvisational works, each measuring exactly 5 x 7 inches. The following three subjects are represented individually in the three works: Tree of Life, Winds of Change, and Fields of Gold.
It was great fun to do these little worlds and I hope to get down to LaVeta, CO to see the show, which is showing May 26 to June 15. The show will consist of approximately 50 different triptychs http://www.rickytims.com/upcoming_gallery_shows.htm
